FR#10: Wake Up On The Right Side Of Your Life With Powerful Morning Routines
If you wake up on the “wrong” side of the bed often enough, you’ll end up on the wrong side of your LIFE. The same goes for creating routines that get you on the RIGHT side, mentally, physically, emotionally or spiritually.
In this episode I share about the morning routines and mindsets that have helped me succeed, beat anxiety and depression, and stay refreshed and positive in the face of all of life’s challenges.
Key Takeaways:
1:17 - Create a routine for yourself that is in alignment with the person you want to become
Quote: "Every decision we make casts a vote in favor or against the type of person you want to become.” - James Clear
